As you are probably aware, the tax structure is going to change as of January 1st, 2018 with the new tax bill. In 2018 you will be not be able to deduct more than $10,000 total for local, state and local property taxes. In 2017 the combined total is $20,000.

Depending on your tax structure and the advice given by your Certified Public Accountant or tax attorney it may be worthwhile paying your property taxes before the end of this year. It will also depend on your local taxing authority having your finalized property tax figures available and that authority being able to receive your payment ahead of the normal payment schedule.
